Examle of erformane metri: Reone time Throughut Availability Tye of arameter: Workload intenity e.g., arrival rate ervie demand. 3 Tye of Model imulation: mimi flow of tranation through a ytem. Ditribution-driven Trae-driven Analyti: et of formula or omutational algorithm. Exat Aroximate Hybrid 4

3 When to Ue? Ue Exat Analyti Model Whenever Poible. Ue Aroximate Analyti Model: For firt-ut analyi If validated by imulation To redue ombination of inut arameter to imulation model. Ue imulation: If there i no tratable analyti model. 5 ingle Queue W T utomer waiting line T W + 6 3
